SABnzbd Forums

I've been running with the SABnzbd / Sick Beard setup for a few weeks now and have downloaded pretty near a full Tb worth of data, but when I checked on the status of a download last night, even though there was about 20Gb worth of data left to download, it was in a "paused" state. It's never done this before. When I clicked on the button to resume, it would start to download again, but stop in a few minutes. Any clues???

- Running version 0.7.4 Windows
- Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
- around 300Gb free in "cache" drive
- Just shy of 2Tb free in data drive

This is a dedicated media server and the only thing running on it would be SABnzbd, Sick Beard and Couch Potato...

Does the problem go away if you go back to an older release? Say, 0.7.2.
Do you use the "check before download" option in Config->Switches?

I just encountered the same problem. Once I went and manually deleted all of the files/folders inside of, both, the complete and incomplete folders, its operation returned to normal. I also tried adjusting several settings in the config to no avail. I'm hoping that I fixed the problem for myself, but if I didn't I'll return to post any relevant details.

Should it happen again, you're better off doing a "Queue Repair" from the Status page.
That way you don't lose your queue and any corrupt admin data will still go away.
